long ago, who did not know that all
we'll regulated editors make il one Of
the important details Of their busi-
ness not to let the printers stand
around aud charge for time Tho
editorial room is not q luxurious spot,
but it isinvariable comfortably quiet
1t is especially rare field for the
study OF character. In The course
OF n year every phase Of human ma
ture passes before the eye Of the edi-
tor in his sanctum, and it ia there
that the cant aud h,pocrisy Of hui
maniiy nro most frequently sclf.op-
posed. The hollownets Of politicians
is Gret detected by the editor: for
tho politician has conidant in the
editor, So it is with merchants
preachers and overy manner Of map,
who comes into the editorial room
IL they arc weak aud hypocritical,
the editor is the first TO discover it,
for the editorial room is sort Of
disrobing chamber for the rest Of the
world "A place whore people come
and lay of their masks aud toggery,
aud display their blemishes and
weaknesses To those who aro iu
the secret, it is no wonder that edi-
tors are afflicted With skepticism.

Best Varieties OF Fowls.

"What variety shall l breedP' is an
ever recurring question that receives each
season ever varying answers. A very
sensible reply is that of The Southern Gull
tivator, which is, in brief, that no one can
answer the question better than yourself.
If your yards are small your common
sense ought to tell you that large breeds,
such as light or dark Brahmas, buff or
partridge Cochins, white Cochins or
Langshans may suit you. Either stand
confinement well but need close attention
to keep them from getting too fat They
are all good winter layers, hatch and rear
their young, and When fully matured are
OF enormous size.
If, on the other hand, your runs are un-
limited, the Leghorns, Ganred, Houdans,
Spanish and Hamburgs are all good.
These are decidedly actlve, DO Detter when
roaming at large than when confined, and
in fact are hard to keep shut up, as they
fly over fences ten feet high, They will
knock garden crazy in ten minutes, stil
up the flower bed in fine style and assert
rights on all occasions. OF the medium
class the Wysndottes and Plymouth Rocki
hold undisputed ground. They seem tt
do as well on small runs as large, will la!
almost the, year through with good treat
ment, and are large enough for all pur
poses. To those who are breeding fo
''fancy points, the Plymouth Rock Il
more popular than its rival, the Wyan
dotte Both are the Product of crosses
but the Plymouth Rock has been bred 8,
long that but little trouble is experience,
ia securing good standard specimens

pot cultnrn of 1nnclfolIum- IIlIes.

Few persons seem aware that the
varieties Of lily, called lancifolium, are
admirably adapted for pot culture in the
house or on piazzas; while the truth is,
that with such cultivation they are far
finer than when grown in the open border.
For the decoration of terraces, porches,
windows conservatories, churches and the
like, lilies grown in pots are invaluable;
for, treated in this way, the plant and
blossoms attain a magnificent size and
form and are most beautiful objects, as
may be concluded from the cut given.
From a dozen to thirty blooms on a
stem and six to twelve stems in pot may
be obtained, according to Wick, who is eX-
cellent authority in all such matters, if
good bulbs are used, good care given and
the following mode of procedure observed:
Take of well decayed sods, which should
be from medium loan and as fibrous as
possible, three parts; good fibre peat, one
part; or, if peat is not at hand, leaf mold
well decomposed, and one part thoroughly
rotted COW manure. If those who have
not access to all these soils live near the
woods and can, by first pushing slightly
to one side the top and least decayed sur
face leaves, obtain some good, light, top
soil and leaf mold it will answer almost
equally as well. If little sandy so much
the better; if not, a little sand may be
added to give it the porosity which light
or medium iibrous loan naturally has. If
none but heavy loan can be obtained, use
less of it and more leaf mold and sand, or
decayed hops from brewery may be SUBJ
stituted form leaf mold. In any case, do
not forget to add fifth part of well de-
composed COW or hotbed manure.

A horse SHES, as rule, because he sees
something which he does not understand.
It may be some new or unusual object
that the horse sees, or it may be an imper.
feet view of one. Even familiar object
brought to view suddenly and unexpect.
edly will cause a horse to shy or jump,
just as an unexpected object or sound
causes nervous people to start. Harsh
treatment of horses only aggravates mat
ters and increases the habit.
The more the horse is scolded and
whipped the more nervous he becomes, and
every time he passes the place where the
fright and whipping occurred he will recol.
lect the unpleasant affair and prick up his
ears, fidget and get ready for another jump.
Never strike or scOld a sensitive, nervous
animal that is startled. Give him ample
time in which to recover his scattered
senses; speak to him calmly and kindly
and make him feel that you are his pro
tector, not his tyrant. When he has dis
covered for himself that all is right there
will be an end to all further trouble.

THE new Pension bill, after passing

up In the Senate for further action by a
motion to reconsider. The Pittsburg

for halt in this pension business" not
withstanding the work of "the claim
agents and political demagogues at
Washington" who, the Gazette says,
"are IS Tspaclous and potential now as

The pots must be well drained with
broken potsherds or the like, then a
double handful of the toughest of the soil
which, by the way, should be well broken
up and mixed but not sifted, should be
added. Then fill the pot about half full
with compost Put in the bulb with a
little sand under it, press it down firmly
and fill the pot to within an inch and a
half Of the rim, water sufficiently to
settle the soil and set in the shade till
shoots appear. Give just enough water
to keep the soil moist until the bulbs
start, then more will be required. When
the flower buds start, weak liquid manure
may take the place of water For a six
inch pot one strong bulb will be sufficient.

Facts Farmers Want to Know,

A New England eXrrrimenter finds that
feeding apples to mi Uh cows invariably
lessons the flow of mills.
In planting a new orchard some grow
ers plant peach trees between the apple
trees. The peach grows and bears quickly,
yielding largely before the apple trees
need the space.
Meat for the use of small family can
be smoked by slispending the hams from
bars laid across a large barrel open at
both ends and set above smoldering fire.
Corn cobs make a good smoke, and bay
leaves and juniper berries give an aro-
matte flavor Cover the barrel while
smoking. So says The Iowa Register.
The Louisiana orange crop proves to be
less than one-tenth Of an average crop.
Mr.. Louis, Of Wisconsin, a noted Po-
land China breeder says it pays to feed
cooked food lie believes in breeding from
matured parents, as they bring strong
and healthy pigs. He used to keep hogs
until Is months old for making pork, but
found that a mistade-10 months is as
long as is profitable.

AUTOMATIC GATE.

It will be seen that the gate opens either
way. The latch is the old fashioned mod
ern spring, and is tripped by wires which
pass through pulleys on the heel post Of
the gate and thence to the crank posts
The opening is done by cranks, which
turn small pulleys, around each of which
o small rope preferably tarred rope is
passed, the rope also passing around a
similar pulley fixed to the heel post of the
gate In order to give sufficient friction
it may be necessary to pass the rope twice
around the pulleys.
